Yes, my bulbs are about four inches from the evap. You can install
everything inside, or do like I did and install the sockets outside and
drill some holes for the bulbs to be inside.
This is where I got mine. A friend tells me you can find them cheaper.

You installed these lights on the outlet side? Did you install them in
the duct somehow?

I did two things that help my HVAC system. First, I have two return
inlets. One near the floor and one near the ceiling that use the same
ductwork otherwise. I made a plug for the one not being used and keep a
filter in the other. Summer time I suck from the ceiling and recondition
the warm air up there. Winter time is reversed.
Two, I installed UV lights in front of the outlet side of my evaporator
and they kill germs. My evaporator is so clean I could put it on the
showroom floor for sale new, uhh almost.
Before I installed the UVs, I could barely see light through the evap, it
had greasy looking black stuff plugging it up.
I used a germ test kit before and after that indicated Yeast, Bacteria
and Mold. My count before was 2, 6 and four. Six months later it was 2
and 1. Last month, two years later, it was 1 and 1. The bulbs only last
two or three years so I'm checking every six months for a clue the change
them out.
